    Dialysis SOW - WRSU 2025.pdf
    The Department of Health & Human Services is seeking to procure inpatient dialysis machines for the Whiteriver Indian Hospital (WRIH) to enhance healthcare services for American Indians and Alaska Natives.

The initiative aims to establish local dialysis services, decrease unnecessary patient transfers, and improve care by utilizing familiar staff for treatment. The scope of work includes the provision of two NxSTAGE or equivalent dialysis machines, requiring no water source or filtration. The contractor will deliver equipment, a service contract for five years, and conduct staff training. Hospital staff will manage patient admissions based on their acuity, and telemedicine support will be provided by identified nephrologists. Implementing this service will enhance WRIH's capacity to care for chronic kidney disease patients and increase the hospital's revenues while conserving resources.
